As we have dicussed in the previous article, Backgammon is a game of talent and pure luck. The aim is to move your checkers safely around the board to your inner board while at the same time your opposition moves their chips toward their inside board in the opposite direction. With opposing player checkers shifting in opposing directions there is going to be conflict and the need for particular strategies at specific instances. Here are the last two Backgammon tactics to complete your game.
The Priming Game Plan
If the aim of the blocking tactic is to hamper the opponents ability to shift their pieces, the Priming Game tactic is to absolutely barricade any activity of the opponent by assembling a prime – ideally 6 points in a row. The competitor’s pieces will either get hit, or result a damaged position if he ever attempts to escape the wall. The ambush of the prime can be built anyplace between point 2 and point eleven in your game board. Once you’ve successfully built the prime to stop the activity of the opponent, your opponent doesn’t even get a chance to roll the dice, and you shift your chips and toss the dice yet again. You will win the game for sure.
The Back Game Technique
The objectives of the Back Game plan and the Blocking Game plan are very similar – to harm your competitor’s positions with hope to boost your odds of winning, but the Back Game technique uses alternate techniques to do that. The Back Game strategy is frequently used when you are far behind your competitor. To compete in Backgammon with this technique, you need to control two or more points in table, and to hit a blot (a single piece) late in the game. This plan is more complex than others to use in Backgammon because it needs careful movement of your pieces and how the checkers are moved is partly the outcome of the dice roll.
